Mechanic in Northeast? was created by Jbeebe

I'm working on a friend's mx250 right now (as you may have seen the plethora of threads I have going) but have run out of time. I'm a high school teacher and a law student and both school years start back up for me in a couple of weeks. 

Does anyone know of anyone in the PA, MD, NJ, NY area that would be willing to get this thing running? It's at the point where a pressure/vac test needs to be done on it because of a runaway idle. 

Thanks!

Wish i lived closer than half a world away. I had one of those new, but of course gave no trouble when new. My own feeling is that there's something going on other than what a vac or pressure test will find. But then again i've never found the need to do one. Hope someone close enough can help you out as looks like you'll be busy 'as' for an extended time.
